A player using the Amulet of the Night

The Amulet of the Night is a Hardmode transformation mount that turns the player into a bat on use. While in bat form, players have infinite flight, but will be pulled out of the form when any of the following occurs:

  • The player uses or places an item, including weapons.
  • The player takes fire damage.
  • The player is submerged in water or is inflicted with the Wet debuff.

The player can also perform a special dash animation by double-tapping in either horizontal direction if possible.

The Amulet of the Night is dropped by Vampires during a Solar Eclipse and can be found in naturally-generated chests in the Vampirism secret world seed.

Like other transformation mounts that reduce the player's size, if the player attempts to dismount in a place where they cannot fit, the dismount will fail. On the third attempt, the player will be teleported to the nearest open space and dismount. If there is no valid location within 25x25 blocks, the player will instead be teleported to their spawn point.

Tips

  • Despite being obtainable in early pre-Hardmode in the Vampirism secret world seed, the Amulet of the Night has infinite flight time, making it the only method of gaining infinite flight in pre-Hardmode.
    • This is balanced by the mount's fragility and slow speed relative to other options, especially walking.
    • Its availability in pre-Hardmode in this seed as a Hardmode drop makes it an effective source of early-game money, especially given its abundance in chests and relatively high sell price.
  • Using the mount in a world other than the Vampirism seed does not cause the player to burn in sunlight, and the mount itself causes no vulnerability to the sun.
  • While in the bat form, the player takes up less space, only being about 1.25 blocks tall and wide.
